Title: My £50 bat (from ECB)
Post by: Riddy on May 18, 2011, 01:24:53 PM: Bought this bad boy from the ECB store online sale.. at £50, thought it was worth a punt :)

Its a Kahuna 800, i'd say the weight is 2lb 10/11, so not too bad

what are your guys opinions?

Couple of Adidas bats. Incurza and Pellara. Not really familiar with their shapes asI don't know anyone with them, so wanted to get my hands on them and see what pick up, shape, feel, etc was like. Given that they are 2010 models, the price was ridiculously low so if I don't like them then then recouping cost shouldn't be a problem.

Are they 2010. Bugger, the 2011 have smaller handles. Looks like my Pellara County is heading to fleabay :-(

Just double checked. Definitely 2010 stickers.
